Eri Yukizaki, is a girl locked in battle with a chain-saw wielding incantation of true evil. But like the demons that boil inside her heart, the 'Chainsaw Man' doesn't seem to die no matter how much she stabs him. As she fights, a young man, Yamamoto watches, love-struck, wishing he could be more than just her useless bicycle courier. An action-packed romance, digging into the human psyche, exploring the demons that buries us in sadness and misery. Hilarious, action-packed, romantic, thrilling, cute, and dramatic!

This is another of the few unique manga that challenge the reader to meditate over a depressing but realistic matter, in which many can relate as they enter adulthood; the theme is, not surprisingly, quite similar to Welcome to the NHK. Unfortunately, there is also much room for one to miss these ideas, and simply label it an odd action manga.

Nonetheless, I would highly recommend this manga. TAKIMOTO Tatsuhiko is a great author.

8D the manga is awesome i love the drawing compare to most of the manga i read i was like WTF seeing some of the most detail faces and i love the relationship between them its cute does the movie have same events as the manga or do they both differ?

Negative Happy Chainsaw Edge is an interesting manga series for sure. The careful blend of slice of life sensibility and bombastic fantasy, the offbeat romance, subtle, ironic comedy and oddly detached action sequences make for a certainly atypical sort of manga. It's definitely different, and it's that difference that makes it well worth reading.

Yes it starts with an absurd premise and there are jokes, but this is definitely not just a gag manga. Beneath the obvious setup lies an existential coming-of-age story about students struggling to find meaning in their lives. I get a bit of a FLCL-ish vibe from it.

I have really enjoyed this manga so far but only three chapters have been released so I won't rate it yet.
